A device for producing a 3D-printed active substance-releasing system with active substance depots, such that a radiation source in operation causes a polymerisation of a layer of the base material on the construction platform and that an inkjet printhead incorporates an active substance mixture, which has at least one active substance, into the base material in a locationally selective manner. A trough is provided, in which a base material and a construction platform are arranged, and polymerising selected regions of a layer of the base material on the construction platform and introducing, by means of an inkjet printing method, an active substance mixture, which has at least one active substance, into the base material and/or polymerised base material in a locationally selective manner in order to thereby create active ingredient depots in the active ingredient-releasing system.

A medical implant that includes a scaffold having at least one receptacle for an X-ray marker. The scaffold includes a first metal. At least one (preferably monolithic) X-ray marker is disposed in the receptacle. The X-ray marker includes a second metal. An electrically insulating coating is upon the X-ray marker to prevent corrosion-promoting contact between the X-ray marker and the scaffold.

X-ray marker for absorbable metallic scaffolds having high X-ray visibility and integrated self-passivation effect
